The re-fight clause is activated in the event of Tyson’s defeat
Former UFC Heavyweight Champion Francis Ngannou (17-3, 12 KOs) said that in the contract of his fight with the WBC heavyweight title holder Tyson Fury (33-0-1, 24 KOs) there is an option revenge. The item about the second battle is activated in the event of the defeat of the “Gypsy King”.
The fight between Fury and Ngannou will take place on October 28 in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia. The WBC granted Tyson a special permit to fight the former UFC champion.
Fury has not been in the ring since December 2022, when he defended his WBC title against Derek Chisora. In April, Tyson planned to have a unification fight with Oleksandr Usyk, but the Ukrainian pulled out of negotiations due to contract disagreements.
Ngannou had his last fight in the UFC in January last year, after which he left the promotion. In May, he signed with the Professional Fighters League.
